iOS users wanting to get in on the awesomeness that is Amazon Cloud Player have been left out thus far, but this weekend Amazon quietly updated it to work on iOS...with a few caveats.

iOS still doesn't have an awesome native Cloud Player app like Android does, but you can actually play songs from the web interface in Safari without downloading them first. To get it working, just head to in Safari and start playing music.

Unfortunately, it's still the desktop-optimized version of the site, so navigating it feels a little ridiculous. Scrolling through the right-hand pane takes two fingers and is a slow process, and you can't drag and drop songs onto playlists or drag the slider to a different point in the song. Basically, you can play through existing playlists and albums smoothly; it'll just take you a long time to get to them. Once you start playing, though, it works pretty nicely: it works with iOS' multitasking and everything, so you can leave Safari and it'll keep playing; and it'll even pause itself if you get a push notification.

It's pretty far from perfect, but it works. It's still up in the air as to whether we'll even get a native app (or at least a working mobile site) on iOS, so we'll take our victories where we can get them.
